Turkey hunting with a recurve - HD video
« on: April 29, 2024, 12:30:25 PM »
Hi tradgang, Brad here. Just want to share my latest hunting video. Self filmed, from the ground harvest of a big ol tom. I had to work this bird for 4 hours before he commited to my decoy set at the end of the day, right before roost.

Enjoy the video, thanks tradgang.

Way to go sir!  Thanks for posting it up.  How far did he travel from where he went out of sight on the video? :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

Hunting without a blind is tough. Great Job.

Thanks guys. He went about another 50 yards. I heard loud flapping and figured it was him doing a final death flap or going up to roost. Came back in the morning to where I suspected him and he was under a big oak tree in some scrub. Looked like he tried to roost and either fell out of tree or couldn’t make it up and finished his journey right there.

Good you could leave him over night, in Texas there would only have been a pile of feathers left.  Hogs and coyotes would have feasted.
